The Viridian SmartGlass range, which officially launched this month, has won Product of the Year at the recent 2011 HIA GreenSmart Awards.
The product won the judges acclaim for its range of four residential single glazed energy efficient glass options, selected specifically for Australia’s demanding climate.
“We’re certainly honored that the HIA has chosen to recognise our efforts to provide the glass options tuned specifically to meet the needs of the local market,” said Viridian general manager of marketing, Lachlan Austin.
Mr Austin also commented that the product may help to make advanced glazing more accessible to Australian builders, renovators and homeowners.
“We’ve had an excellent take up of SmartGlass, with several major volume builders signing up in advance, as a cost effective way for them to achieve more sustainability focused designs that achieve higher energy ratings without sacrificing natural light and aspect.”
The glass comes in a range of tones - Clear, Neutral, Green and Grey, which offer increasing levels of solar protection from the sun’s heat and greater glare control.
